Sonya, co-owner with Natalie, has over 15 years experience within the industry and started out her career as a hairdresser while training with Toni & Guy. A few years after qualifying, she decided to go back to college. This was to complete some training she needed in order to do a teaching qualification and that’s where her and Natalie met. This was the start of Brandon May…

She completed that teaching qualification in 2013, as we feel training is an important part of the Brandon May philosophy. Sonya is constantly reading articles, books, websites and attending training as part of her CPD.

She’s friendly and passionate about every client; she wants to make you feel special.

Sonya covers all aspects of hairdressing…

but loves bridal hair and men’s hair. After doing some destination weddings the last couple of years, this is something that Sonya wishes to pursue further. Combining two of her loves: hairdressing and travel. She feels that by brides having the advantage of getting to know their stylist at home, before flying out to do their wedding this offers a truly personal and unique service.

Around hectic salon life, she busies herself with renovating her house (interior design novice alert!), taking pictures of her two cats, Prince and Pablo, as well as enjoying travelling, watching stupid animal videos and buying ankle boots.
